"We take the liberty of introducing to the kind regards of the 
great Fraternity of Freemasons in North America this little book, 
as the product of an earnest effort to place before them a compen- 
dious Register of their lodges and grand lodges on this continent, 
to the extent of all which correspond or recognize each other. As 
will be seen, those lodges number (S.0G9) eight thousand and sixty- 
nine, the grand lodges (47) forty-seven, while they mutually rep- 
resent more than (514,296) five hundred and fourteen thousand, 
two hundred and ninety-six MEN, all bound, to a certain extent, 
by similar rites and obligations to assist each other in sickness 
and in health, and extend each to the other of this vast multitude 
a brother's hand and a brother's affectionate consideration. 

Believing that such a little book would be gratifying as instruc- 
tive to every Brother Freemason who took that interest in our 
great Fraternity that is expected of us all, we have, at greater 
expense and more labor than we anticipated, and with the kind 
assistance of brethren, 'the secretaries and grand secretaries, been 
enabled to present that which we have conscientiously endeavored 
to make — a correct Register of the information this book presents, 
and compressed the same into as little space as a due regard for 
• the easy examination and use of it would warrant. 

A book of this character, and confined to its subjects, presents a 
very limited field for literary labor or merit ; nevertheless we hope 
that its contents even in this respect will be satisfactory to those 
they principally interest. In our notices of grand lodges we have 
in great measure confined our statements to necessary information, 

[3] 



4 INTRODUCTION. 

and have presented what we believe to be a correct record as well 
of their organization as of their standing at this date. Wherever 
we have exceeded this, we have endeavored to do so not in a spirit 
of unkind criticism, but fraternally solicitous for the better condi- 
tion and more truly respectable of those important bodies. 

With this, our brief introduction of our General Masonic Reg- 
ister to those for whom it has been produced, we bespeak their 
kind indulgence towards any faults or errors of omission or com- 
mission they may discover. With the most careful and pains-taking 
fidelity in its production, such a book, we respectfully request 
them to remember, although believed to be nearly perfect, must 
necessarily be imperfect ; and notwithstanding the greatest degree 
of correctness may be desired and earnestly striven for, where 
thousands of proper names are presented, incorrectness will inevi- 
tably occur.

& f a G ama. 



The Grand Lodge of this State was organized on the 14th June, 
1821. Its communications are held in December of each year, at 
the city of Montgomery. Than this no grand lodge in North Am- 
erica has exercised a manner more paternal and solicitous for their 
welfare toward the lodges of its jurisdiction. In evidence we can, 
from personal knowledge, state that in 1858, consequent upon a 
vote taken in Dec! 1857, there was purchased for and delivered to 
each lodge in good standing in the State a set of the 8 " Universal 
Masonic Library," thirty volumes octavo, at a cost to the Grand 
Lodge of Alabama of about Forty-five Dollars a set ; and on more 
than one occasion, as we have been informed, when it was ascer- 
tained that the treasury exceeded the requirements of the grand 
lodge, instead of hoarding and putting to interest the excess, as is 
the manner generally of those organizations, this excess was divi- 
ded pro rata among and returned to the lodges. Engaging in no 
building operations for any purpose, and keeping expenses at fig- 
ures designated by the constitution, the revenue, derived from 
charter fees and fifty cents per capita annual dues from the mem- 
bers of the lodges, has always been ample to meet the obligations 
of this grand lodge. In common with the majority of grand lodges 
in the Southern States, neither mileage nor per diem is paid by the 
G. L. of Alabama ; and a proposed change in the constitution, rec- 
ognizing such payment, was in 1870 voted in the negative by a 
majority of the lodges. A proposition to assess for the purpose of 
building a " G. L. Hall " in the city of Montgomery, and under 
which, though not submitted to the lodges for their rejection or 
approval, its terms had been by some of them complied with, was. 
in 1870, repealed by the grand lodge, and a vote passed to return 
the money received to the lodges which paid it. 

During the fifty years this grand lodge has existed there have 
been 374 lodges set to work by its charters and dispensations, of 
which 244 were in 1870 returned in good standing, with a member- 
ship of 10,985. The Constitution, Sec. 22. of Art. 6, directs that 

in

GENERAL MASONIC REGISTER. 



" Every lodge that shall neglect to make, regular return to the G. 
L., or to pay its dues, or fail to be represented in G. L. for two 
successive years, or which shall fail to assemble for work for the 
space of six months, shall be stricken from the books of the G. L., 
be deprived of the benefits of Masonry, and its charter declined 
forfeited." Under this provision there were, in 1870. 69 lodges the 
charters of which were declared forfeited, with 38 reported delin- 
quent for one year, and 19 army numbers extinct, leaving 244 in 
good standing, and of which 233 were duly represented. 

The executive grand officers elected in December, 1870, are — 

Wm. P. Chilton, of Montgomery, Grand Master. 

Joseph H. Johnson, of Talladega. Dep. Gr. Master. 

Wm. H. Dtngley. of Montgomery. Gr. Treasurer. 

Daniel Sayre, of Montgomery, Gr. Secretary. 
The following information is compiled from the Proceedings of 
Grand Lodge for 1870. with such corrections made therein as the 
later information supplied by the lodge Secretaries, in reply to our 
circulars soliciting the same, afforded.

The Grand Lodge of this State was organized on the 22d of Feb- 
ruary. 1832. Its communications are held at Little Rock, the cap- 
ital of the State, in November of each year. It is one of the few 
grand lodges which recognize Past Masters as regular members, 
and the only grand lodge extant that devotes the surplus of its rev- 
enue to the sustenance of an institution of learning. Each year a 
Board of Trustees is elected in Grand Lodge to attend to the inte- 
rests of Saint John's College, located at Little Rock, and which 
Board annually, through its secretary, reports the condition of that 
institution to Grand Lodge. So soon as its liabilities for the cur- 
rent year are ascertained by proper committee, the grand lodge at 
once votes the residue to be, on the grand treasurer's books, placed 
to the credit of St. John's College ; and this balance, with donations 
from friends of the college, have thus far proved sufficient to sus- 
tain the same in a satisfactory manner. During the year 1870 the 
college buildings were greatly improved, and are now capable of 
accomodating over sixty students with sleeping rooms. A suitable 
boarding-house has also been provided on the grounds, where the 
students all can be provided with good food at a moderate charge. 
A president and the necessary professors render this institution 
a very valuable acquisition to the educational privileges of the 
whole State. The college is endowed with a lot of valuable land, 
$35,000 worth of which was, in 1870,.sold to persons who agreed to 
settle upon and improve their purchases, and who, under such con- 
tract, and the agreement to pay interest semi-annually for the re- 
spective amounts, were allowed ten years within which to pay for 
their respective purchases. 

Neither mileage nor per diem are paid by the G. L. of Arkansas 
to the representatives or members. In November, 1870, there 
were -enrolled 262 lodges, with a membership of 9.324 master ma- 
sons. Of those lodges 231 had made returns for the year, and 134 
were represented at the communication for that year. The execu- 
tive grand officers then elected are as follow :

The Grand Lodge of this State was organized on the 18th of 
April, 1S50, by four lodges, working under charters from as many 
States. Its communications are held in the City of San Francisco, 
in the new Masonic Temple, in October of each year. Its mem- 
bership is composed in part of Past Masters. The most notable 
feature about this grand lodge is the running expenses of its grand 
secretary's office, amounting in 1870 to, including printing, S8,G00. 
For this money, however, the best work is done in the best man- 
ner. The revenue of this grand lodge is large, being for an equal 
number of lodges nearly double the amount levied by the grand 
lodges of the Atlantic States. With 178 lodges, and a membership 
of less than 10.000 Master Masons, the revenue for 1870 amounted 
to $17,500. The representatives are "reimbursed their necessary 
traveling expenses " from the Representative Fund, (at present 25 
cents per member of each lodge in the State paid annually for this 
fund,) and which payments, in aggregate, amounted in 1870 to the 
sum of $4,710.25 — about equally proportionate with mileage and 
per diem paid by other grand lodges of like constituency. 

The executive officers elect and appointed in October, 1870, are 
as follow, viz : 

Leoxidas E. Pratt, of San Francisco, Grand Master. 

Isaac S. Titus, of Stockton, Deputy Gr. Master. 

James Laidley, of San Francisco, Gr. Treasurer. 

Alex. Gurdon Abell, of San Francisco, Gr. Secretary. 

Lawrexce C. Owex, of San Francisco, Assistant G. Sec'y. 
The following information is collected from the Proceedings for 
1870 of the Grand Lodge, and such later data as we received from 
the lodge secretaries, in response to our circulars requesting the 
same :

The Grand Lodge of this Territory was organized on the 2nd 
of August, 1861, by tbe representatives of the three lodges then in 
the territory, and J. M. Chivington, of Gold Hill, was elected the 
firs f , grand master. In 1870 15 lodges were in the Territory, with 
a membership in all of 854 Master Masons. The rejections usually 
equal the receptions in this jurisdiction, as the population is of a 
floating character, and mainly unsettled. There has been erected 
a convenient Masonic Hall at Central City, where the grand lodge 
meets on the last Tuesday of each Sept'r. Past Masters are not re- 
cognized as members of this grand lodge, but past grand and past 
deputy grand masters are. Mileage and per diem are paid to one 
representative from each lodge, at rate of 12.5 cents per mile, go- 
ing and returning, and two dollars per diem for each day in actual 
attendance. 

Among the Resolutions of this grand lodge having the force of 
law, and styled -'Standing Resolutions," is one declaring that the 
lodge that fails to meet once in six months forfeits its charter. 
Another is that non-affiliated Masons shall pay grand lodge dues, 
or be permitted to visit a lodge not more than twice. Another is 
that no lodge shall grant a demit to any of its members except for 
one of two purposes : to move out of the jurisdiction or to affiliate 
in another lodge. 

In 1869 this grand lodge reprinted its, proceedings from date of 
its organization at a cost of S1360. The same is bound in a hand- 
some volume, and for a copy of which the grand secretary is here 
tendered our fraternal thanks. 

The executive officers elected in September, 1870, were— 
Henry M. Teller, of Central, Grand Master. 
C. J. Hart, of Pueblo, Deputy Gr. Master. 
Wm. W. Ware, of Georgetown, Gr. Treasurer. 
Ed. C. Parmelee, of Georgetown, Gr. Secretary.

(Connecticut. 



The Grand Lodge of this State was organized on the 8th of July 
1789, by a convention of delegates from all the lodges in the State, 
. and this was the first independent grand lodge organized in this 
manner in North America. Delegates from fifteen lodges organ- 
ized this grand lodge, and elected Pierpont Edwards the first grand 
master The business of this grand lodge is conducted in maxim- 
um manner at a minimum rate of expense — the grand secretary be- 
ing paid the stipend of $250 a year for his services. A very low 
rate of dues is exacted from the lodges, the same being simply a 
tax of $1.50 per capita for each initiate by the lodges during the 
year. In 1870 this amounted to $1308. When this tax fails to 
meet the regular expenses a small assessment is made under a 
provision of the constitution. The regular communications of this 
grand lodge are held alternately at Hartford and New Haven on 
the second Wednesday in May of each year. Past Masters are not 
recognized as members. No mileage or per diem, nor any other 
compensation to lodge representatives; while each lodge, under a 
penalty of $8 for each neglect of such requirement, must be repre- 
sented, unless at the next grand annual meeting a satisfactory rea- 
son for such neglect is tendered. In 1870 there were 99 lodges 
working under charters, and 4 under dispensation, with a total 
membership of 14,072, or an average of 136 to eaeh lodge — the 
highest in North America. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

Asa Smith, of Norwalk, Grand Master. 

James L. Gould, of Bridgeport, Deputy Gr. Master 

George Lee, of Hartford, Grand Treasurer. 

Joseph H. Wheeler, of Hartford, Grand Secretary.

DeCamctre. 



The Grand Lodge of this State was organized on the 6th of June 
1806. Its annual communications are held in Wilmington, on the 
fourth Monday in June. In 1870 there were 18 lodges in the State 
holding charters from this grand lodge, with a total membership 
of 967 Master Masons. The most notable act of this grand lodge 
was the adoption in June. 1867, of a resolution by which it was 
made an obligation of the Master's degree for every mason in the 
Stute to discountenance the making a mason of i; any negro, mulat- 
to, or colored person of the United States.'' In 1869 this resolu- 
tion was repealed, and one substituted enjoining, under the pen- 
alty of expulsion, non-intercourse with any society claiming to be 
Masonic, unless the same be. acknowledged by the Gr. Lodge of 
Delaware. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

J. C. McCabe, of Middletown, Grand Master. 

W. F. Godwin, of Milford, Deputy Gr. Master. 

J. C. Pickels, of Wilmington, Grand Treasurer. 

John C. Allmond, of Wilmington, Grand Secretary.

Tuesday in November ; the semi-annual on the first Tuesday in 
May, and the installation of officers on the 27th of December. 

Past Masters are recognized as members of this grand lodge. In 
1870 there were 19 lodges, with a total membership of 2420 Master 
Masons. A handsome Masonic Hall has recently been built in 
Washington City, in which all the lodges, except that at George- 
town, and the grand lodge meet. During 1870 the subject " the 
Right of Visit " was discussed through a most exhaustive corre- 
spondence conducted by the executive of this grand lodge with the 
other grand lodges of the United States, and the decision arrived 
at was that it is the right of the W. M. to determine on the recep- 
tion or rejection of a visitor, he alone being responsible to the grand 
lodge. The executive officers elected in November, 1870, were — 
Chas. F. Staxsbcry, Grand Master. 
Geo. B. Clark, Dep. Grand Master. 
C. Cammack, sr., Grand Treasurer. 
Noble D. Larxer, Grand Secretary. 

The following information is collected from the Proceedings for 
1870 of the Grand Lodge, and such later data as we received from 
the lodge secretaries, in response to our circulars requesting the

The Grand Lodge of this State was organized on the 6th of July, 
1830. by the delegates from three lodges then in the State, assem- 
bled for the purpose at Tallahassee, and John P. Duval', being the 
senior Past Master present, was elected the first Grand Master. In 
1858 this grand lodge voted to purchase, and had delivered to each 
lodge then existing in the State, a set of the '-Universal Masonic 
Library," at a cost of about S45 each set. In 1859, this grand 
lodge, under the superintendence of the late Past Grand Master 
Thomas Brown, reprinted and published its proceedings from 
its organization to that date, in one large and handsome volume, at 
a cost of about $1500. In 1870 there were holding under this 
grand lodge 54 lodges with a total membership of about 2,250. 
Past Masters are members of this grand lodge ; and its annual com- 
munications take place at Tallahassee on the second Monday of 
January. The executive officers elect in 1870 were — 

Samuel Pasco, of Monticello. Grand Master. 

Albert J. Russell, of Jacksonville, Deputy Gr. Master.

the same month, with "William Stephens as the first grand master,

Dr. Blackshear, the present efficient and painstaking grand secre- 
tary, the proceedings of this grand lodge are produced in the best 
manner. In 1870 there were 272 lodges, with a total membership 
of about 14.100 Master Masons ; and the revenue of the grand lodge 
for that year $18,324.96. Mileage and per diem to amount of $7,100 
was paid in 18K9 to the lodge representatives. Past Masters are 
recognized as members of this grand lodge. There are four dep- 
uty grand masters elected yearly, and the supervision of the lodges 
apportioned among them. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

Samuel Lawrence, of Marietta, Grand Master. 
Davis N. Austin, of Fort Valley, Dep. Gr. Master of District No. 1.

The Grand Lodge in this Territory was organized 10th Decem- 
ber 1SG7, by three lodges holding under G. L. of Oregon, and one 
under the G. L. of Washington Territory, and George H Can* was 
elected the first grand master. In 1870 there were 8 lodges in the 
jurisdiction, with a total membership of 288 Master Masons. This 
grand lodge is migratory, holding its annual communications on 
the first Monday in October-, at such place as may be fixed upon 
at the previous annual session. 

The executive grand officers elect in 1870 were — 

S. B. Coxxelly, of Pioneerville. Grand Master. 

Chas. Hiltox, of Silver City, Deputy Gr. Master. 

J. W. Griffin, of Boise City, Grand Treasurer. 

H. E. Pricpett, of Boise City, Grand Secretary. 
In reply to our circulars requesting the same, three of the lodges 
here given furnished the information desired. Otherwise the list 
is copied from the 1870 Proceedings.

In 1822 there was a grand lodge organized in this territory, but 
it succumbed to the anti-masonic excitement which swept the en- 
tire country within the subsequent decade. The present Grand 
Lodge of Illinois was organized at Jackson, on the 6th of April, 
1840, by delegates from six lodges, four of those lodges holding 
under the G. Lodge of Kentucky ; Abraham Jonas was elected first 
grand master, and Wm. B. Warren the first grand secretary. The 
annual communications are not fixed, as to place, but had been, 
until 1870, for many years held in Springfield, in October. Under 
a change of By-Laws, it is now proposed to permanently locate the 
grand lodge in Chicago, the principal commercial city of the State. 
The increase of lodges in Illinois within thirty years has but one 
parallel in any American State. In 1871 there were 029 lodges, 
with a total membership of 36,250 Master Masons ; being an increase 
in the previous ten years of 100 per cent, for the lodges, and 200 
per cent, for the membership. A proposition made in grand lodge 
in October, 1870, to remove the archives to Chicago, was unfortu- 
nately not adopted, for they were all destroyed by fire in February 
1S71, at Springfield, with the office of the Gr. Secy. The Proceed- 
ings of the 1870 session having, fortunately, been printed at Quin- 
cy, were, to extent of about 1500 copies, saved ; those delivered at 
Springfield having been destroyed. The supervision of this large 
jurisdiction is at present intrusted to thirty District Deputy Grand 
Masters, the appointees of the grand master elect. In 1870 the 
revenue of this grand lodge amounted to $24,570.50, of which the 
sum of $23,383.17 was disbursed in paying mileage and per diem, 
appropriations, salaries, printing, postage, &c. for the year — among 
which $100 only were donated as charity. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were— 
DeWitt C. Cregier, of Chicago, Grand Master. 
James A. Hawley, of Dixon, Deputy Grand Master. 
Harrison Dills, of Quinoy. Grand Treasurer. 
Orlin H. Mixer, of Springfield. Grand Secretary.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized at Corydon, then 
the capital of the territory, on the 12th of January. 1818, by the 
representatives of five lodges. Its annual communications are held 
at Indianapolis, the present capital of the State, convening on the 
fourth Tuesday of May. In May, 1871, there were 437 lodges, with 
a total membership of 23,30S Master Masons. The increase of the 
Fraternity in this State corresponds with the increase of popula- 
tion. This grand lodge is possessed of a Hall at Indianapolis, the 
value of which has been enhanced by repairs and improvements 
put upon it within the past three years. The revenue of this grand 
lodge, computed for the year ending May 22. 1871, was $19,259.22, 
of which $15,268.12 were expended paying mileage and per diem, 
appropriations, salaries, repairs on Hall, printing, postage, etc., 
leaving $9,235.06, the accumulation of two years, as the balance 
in the G. T.'s hands. The most notable reform adopted by this 
grand, lodge occured in 1858. when it was resolved that a lodge 
might depose and discipline its W. M., also appeal from his decision 
to the members in open lodge. The practice has not become gen- 
eral. Past Masters are not recognized as members of this grand 
lodge. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1871 were — 

Martin H. Rice, of Indianapolis, Grand Master. 

Christian Fetta, of Richmond, Deputy Grand Master 

Charles Fisher,. of Indianapolis, Grand Treasurer. 

John M. Bra.mwell, of Indianapolis, Grand Secretary. 
For the following information. we are indebted to the courtesy 
of the Gr. Sec'y.-who from the lodge Returns for 1871 kindly sup- 
pliedthe names of such secretaries as had refused or failed to reply 
to' bur circulars, mailed to each, requesting the favor of such reply. 
Otherwise, the Proceedings of G. L. for 1871 has been refered to.

City, Oliver Cock being elected the first grand master. The annual 
communications are convened on the first Monday of June. The 
place of meeting has-been changeable, and but recently fixed for 
the next four years at Davenport, where Dr. Burtis of that city has 
tendered gratis the use of suitable apartments in his Opera House 
to the Grand Lodge of Iowa. In 1860 there were 150 lodges in the 
State. In 1871 there were 280 lodges chartered, and 4 under dis- 
pensation, with a total membership of 12,548. In ten years, as in 
Illinois, tke lodges in Iowa have doubled, and the membership tre- 
bled, and in this condition have but kept pace proportionately with 
the increase of population in that period in those States. Here- 
after this grand lodge will pay mileage and per diem to its mem- 
bers, The proposition to do so was adopted in June, 1871, and 
the first payments then made. The business of this body is per- 
formed in the best manner, at a moderate expense. The Proceed- 
ings are admirably printed, and the work of the Gr. Sec'y unex- 
celled. This grand lodge has reprinted and published its Proceed- 
ings since its organization, and the same, bound in three handsome 
volumes, are purchaseable at a moderate price. The library of 
this grand lodge, at present located in one of the Burtis Opera 
House rooms at Davenport, is a desirable collection of Masonic 
books and periodicals. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1871 were— 

0. P. Waters, of Muscatine, Grand Master. 

T. J. Copp, of Burlington, Grand Treasurer. 

Theo. S. Parvin, of Iowa City, Grand Secretary. 

This grand lodge does not elect but the Gr. Master appoints the 
Deputy Grand Master. For the information following we are prin- 
cipally indebted to the Proceedings of G. L. for 1870, and the Gr. 
Sec'y, and also to the Bro. Secretaries who have responded to our 
circulars soliciting later information.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized on the 27th Nov 
ember. 1855, by delegates from two lodges. The proceedings hav- 
ing been pronounced illegal, another convention of delegates from 
all the lodges in the territory met, on the 17th March. 1856, ratified 
the proceedings of the previous convention, and thereupon opened 
a grand lodge for the territory, with Richard R. Rees the first grand 
master. The increase of lodges and brethren in Kansas since that 
date has kept pace with the population. In 1870 there were 96 
lodges, and 3.761 members. This grand lodge has no abiding place 
at which to hold its annual communications, neither does it pay 
mileage or per diem to its members, among which Past Masters 
are recognized. The treasury is small, and grand lodge dues kept 
at a figure sufficient to meet current expenses only, or about $2000 
per annum. 

The executive grand officers elect in 1870 were — 
John H. Brown, of Leavenworth, Grand Master. 
Johx M. Price, of Atchison, Deputy Gr. Master. 
Christian Beck, of Leavenworth, Grand Treasurer. 
E. F. Carr, of Leavenworth, Grand Secretary. 

Following the example set by the G. L. of Iowa, some years ago, 
but abrogated in 1871, this grand lodge elects three " Custodians 
of the Work," who serve a term of years, and whose traveling ex- 
penses, unless paid by the lodges which they visit, are paid by the 
Grand Lodge. In both States the object of this arrangement was 
to teach in the lodges a system of work and lectures adopted by 
the respective grand lodges as the most correct and satisfactory— 
a result that in Iowa is believed to have been accomplished. 

The following information is collected from the Proceedings for 
1870 of the Grand Lodge, and such later data as we received from 
the lodge secretaries, in response to our circulars requesting the 
same :

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized on 16th October, 
1800, by a convention of delegates from the lodges then in the 
State holding under the Grand Lodge of Virginia, after receiving 
the consent of that body, in reply to a memorial addressed to it a 
month previously, and William Murray was elected the first grand 
master. Until 1858 the annual communications of this grand lodge 
were held in the Masonic Hall at Lexington, and since that year in 
the Masonic Temple at Louisville, in October. Neither mileage 
nor per diem were paid its members, until 1869, in which year the 
grand lodge dues having been increased 25 per cent, per capita of 
the total membership, the payment was begun, and has since been 
continued. This grand lodge has at present a treasury of $100,000 
invested in Stocks, Bonds, and Mortgages of various designations, 
of which $75,000 are iuvested in the Masonic Temple building in 
the City of Louisville. Among the sources of this grand lodge's rev- 
enue there is one which, in this day of general denunciation of the 
business it is derived from, may be regarded as of very questiona- 
ble character. In 1802 the then State Legislature of Kentucky to 
this grand lodge granted a Lottery privilege, for the purpose of 
thereby raising money to build a Masonic Hall at Lexington, and 
which privilege, from lack of knowledge as to the profitable man- 
ner of working it. was for some years subsequently exploited by 
the grand lodge '• Lottery Trustees " at a loss, until finally and for 
the past sixty years farmed out to regular Lottery practitioners. 
In view of the fact that this grant, albeit the object of it was duly 
accomplished more than fifty years ago, was never abrogated, while 
the annual revenue derived from it in this past half century has 
never subserved any educational, moral, or charitable purpose, it 
is believed that the Grand Lodge of Kentucky Freemasons is now 
quite rich enough to forego all further receipt of or benefit to be 
derived from it ; nevertheless, so far, and up to the present time. 
no action tending to such result has been moved in this grand

lodge, and the revenue from this source, at present $500, appears 
annually in the grand treasurer's account. Except in the case of 
the G. L. of Maryland, to which a few years previously by the Ma- 
ryland Legislature a similar privilege was granted for a like pur- 
pose, no other State legislature has ever granted a grand lodge of 
Freemasons such a privilege. By the Maryland grand lodge, how- 
ever, its Lottery privilege was annulled many years ago. 

In 1870 there were holding under the G. L. of Ky. about 413 
lodges, with the total membership 20,338, the dues of whom to the 
grand lodge are $1 each per annum. The executive grand officers 
elect in 1870 were — 

Charles Eginton, of Covington, Grand Master. 
E. B. Jones, of Paducab, Deputy Grand Master. 
Albert G. Hodges, of Frankfort, Grand Treasurer. 
John M. S. M'Cokkle, of Louisville, Grand Secretary. 
For thirty years the Proceedings of this grand lodge have been 
printed by one person — at present and for that whole period the 
grand treasurer, — and the result is that at the present time they 
are printed in no better style than that of thirty years ago, while 
the price is equal to that charged for the finest work done in the 
most expensive prin.ting houses in America. It is believed that a 
change in this particular will result in obtaining work correspond- 
ing with the improved typography and style of hodiernal book- 
making, and creditable to this large and wealthy grand lodge juris- 
diction. From those Proceedings for 1870, and the later data sup- 
plied by such Bro. Secretaries as responded to our circulars, we 
collect the following information.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized on 11th of July, 
1812, by the representatives of five lodges then in the State holding 
under four different grand lodges, one of tbem being that of Mar- 
seilles in France, and P.Francis Du Bourg was elected the first 
grand master. In 1848- 7 49 there were two grand lodges,, which, in 
1850 united and formed that which now exists, and the annual com^ 
munications of which are held in February. In 1871 there were in 
the jurisdiction of this grand lodge 148 lodges, with a total mem- 
bership of 7,307 Master Masons. Lodges work in any Rite they 
may prefer, but no lodge works in two or more Rites. In 1869 
this grand lodge issued its bonds for $75,000, bearing 8 per cent, 
interest ; otherwise its liabilities did not in 1871 exceed $2,500, 
while its assets were in that year estimated at $269,215 . 60, of which 
$125,000 is the estimated value of the Grand Lodge Hall, and the 
unsold "Masonic Temple Property," near that part of the city 
known as Tivoli Circle, is estimated at $70,000. These estimates 
for the property in question, in ordinary times, are believed to be 
not excessive. A proposition, however, to enhance the value of 
those assets, by the erection of a new Masonic Temple, is under 
earnest consideration. Neither mileage nor per diem are paid its 
members by this grand lodge. Its printed Proceedings compose 
a large and handsome annual, and offer the reader, to some extent 
in French as well as in the English language, all the information 
concerning this jurisdiction and Masonry in general that is neces- 
sary in such a volume. 

The executive grand officers elect in 1871 were — 

Sam. Manning Todd, of New Orleans, Grand Master. 

Amos Kent, of Tangipaho, Deputy Grand Master. 

H. Rufus Swasey, of New Orleans, Grand Treasurer. 

James C. Batchelor, of New Orleans, Grand Secretary. 
The following information we collect from the Proceedings of G. 
L. for 1871, with such -changes made therein as the later data sup- 
plied by the lodge secretaries enabled us to make.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized on the 1st of June 
1820, by delegates from the several lodges then assembled at Port- 
land for that purpose, and the Hon. Wm. King, governor of Maine, 
and which in that year was separated from the Commonwealth of 
Massachusetts, was elected the first grand master. The annual 
communications of this grand lodge occur in May in the Hall owned 
by the several Masonic bodies at Portland. In 1870 there were 
153 chartered lodges, and six holding under dispensation, with a 
total membership of 14,820. The jurisdiction is divided into nine- 
teen districts, and each put in charge of a D. D. G. M. appointed by 
the G. M. elect. These officers are paid their traveling expenses ; 
they report annually, and also collect from the several lodges in 
their respective districts the G. L. annual dues, and pay the same to 
the grand treasurer. This grand lodge has a "Charity Fund," of 
$15,000, not sunk in a grand temple, but carefully invested in U. 
S. Bonds and Bank Stocks, the interest of which is devoted to the 
relief of worthy applicants for Masonic charity, 87 of whom were, 
in 1870, reported as having been relieved to extent in all of $1,420. 
The revenue of this grand lodge is but slightly in excess of a very 
low rate of current expenses, or about $5,000 per annum. Neither 
mileage nor per diem is paid to its members. 

The executive grand officers elect in 1870 were — 

John H. Lynde, of Bangor, Grand Master. 

David Cargill, of Augusta, Deputy Grand Master. 

Moses Dodge, of Portland, Grand Treasurer. 

Ira Berry, of Portland, Grand Secretary. 
The following information we collect from the Proceedings of G. 
L. for 1870, with such changes made therein as the later data sup- 
plied by the grand secretary and the lodge secretaries enabled us 
to make.

The Grand Lodge in this State was informally organized at Tal- 
bot C. H., on the 31st of July, 1783, by the representatives of five 
lodges all situate on the Eastern shore, and holding charters from 
the Provincial grand lodge of Pennsylvania ; the lodge at Annapo- 
lis, holding its charter since 1750 from the Massachusetts Provin- 
cial grand lodge, taking no part in the organization. Subsequently 
on the 17th of April, 1787, this 1783 grand lodge was reorganized, 
by representatives from all the lodges in the State, who assembled 
at Baltimore for that purpose. In the same year this grand lodge 
was, by the then Maryland Legislature, granted a Lottery privilege 
to enable it build a Masonic Hall in the City of Baltimore, and by 
which privilege such building was, in the course of several years, 
erected, and remained the property of the grand lodge until 1869, 
when the present Masonic Temple was completed, and which lat- 
ter, as a Masonic building speculation is not considered an unques- 
tionable success. This grand lodge has a '' Charity Fund " of at 
present about $75,000, but, like that of the G. L. of Mass., it is all 
invested in the new Temple, upon which a large amount is about 
to be raised by an issue of G. L. Bonds, with which to clear that 
property entirely of outside debt. This grand lodge pays neither 
mileage nor per diem to its members. In 1870 there were 76 char- 
tered lodges with a total membership of 5,161 Master Masons. This 
grand lodge holds its annual meeting in November in the Temple 
at Baltimore. There is what is called a Grand Steward's Lodge, 
which meets when occasion requires. 

The executive grand officers elect in 1870 were — 

John H. B. Latrobe, of Baltimore, Grand Master. 

Francis Burns, of Baltimore, Deputy Grand Master. 

Fred. K. Ficket, of Baltimore, Grand Treasurer. 

J. H. Medairy, of Baltimore, Grand Secretary. 
From the Proceedings of the G. L. for 1870, with omissions cour- 
teously supplied by the grand Sec'y, the following information has 
been arranged.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized on the 9th of June, 
1792. by two bodies representing all the lodges at that time in the 
State, each of which had exercised grand lodge privileges during 
many years previously, and John Cutler was elected the first grand 
master. Its annual communications are held 14th of December, 
with quarterly communications in March, June and September, also 
a communication on the 27th Dec. for the installation of the officers 
elected at the annual on the 14th of that month. The lodges in 
this State are not numbered, but are listed in alphabetical order, 
numbering in 1870, in all, 182. of which 'there were 3 in South Am- 
erica, 1 in China, and 1 in Peru, and containing in all 20,253 Mas- 
ter Masons. This grand lodge pays neither mileage nor per diem 
to its members. Its treasury and Charity Fund — the latter $75.000 — ■ 
are invested in the Boston Masonic Temple, a building that repre-: 
sents over half a million of dollars, and in which nearly all the Ma- 
sonic bodies in that city meet. Except sufficient to meet very mod- 
erate current expenses, the regular revenue of this grand lodge, 
w r ith the gross amount of a tax of $1 for each affiliated Mason in 
the State, payable yearly for thirteen years, or commuted to a sin- 
gle payment of a less gross amount, constitute a " Sinking Fund for 
" the purpose of paying the indebtedness of the G. L., removing 
"the incumbrance of liabilities upon the Temple, and placing the 
" Charity Fund upon an independent basis." Theliabilitieson the 
Temple are, by this arrangement, in course of liquidation at the 
rate of $20,000 a year. The State is divided into 16 Masonic dis- 
tricts, and each put in charge of a District D. G. M., who visits each 
lodge in his district, receives the dues and taxes therein, and pays 
the same to the grand treasurer, making an annual report to the 
grand master. Each operative lodge is represented by its three first 
. officers elect, each of whom has a voice, and either of whom the 
vote of his lodge. Since first election of the present grand master

the business has been made manifest through its printed Proceed- 
ings in the fullest and most satisfactory manner, with nothing sup- 
pressed that should be made known — the publication for 1871 being 
a noble volume of nearly 600 pages, printed in the best style, and 
presenting to the reader every item of interest that during the pre- 
vious year in any manner affected this grand lodge. 
The executive grand officers re-elected in 1870 were — 

William Sewall Gardner, of Boston, Grand Master. 

John M'Clellan, of Boston, Grand Treasurer. 

Solon Thornton, of Boston, Grand Secretary. 
The following information we collect from the Proceedings of G. 
L. for 1871, with such changes made therein as the later data sup- 
plied by Breth'n lodge secretaries enabled us to make.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized " by a constitu- 
tional number of lodges in 1841," such lodges being of those which 
had not dissolved pursuant to the resolution adopted by the con- 
vention in 1829. suspending in that territory all Masonic labor.— 
This convention was composed of members of the first grand lodge 
organized at Detroit in 1826, and of which Gen. Lewis Cass was 
elected the first grand master. The annual communications of the 
present grand lodge occur in January, at the City of Detroit. In 
1860 there were 122 lodges, with a total membership of 5,816. In 
1870 there were 286 lodges, with a total membership of 22,172. 
The annual revenue of this grand lodge is about $9,000, of which 
the larger part is disbursed in paying mileage and per diem to its 
members. A balance of about $10,000 in 1871 constituted the en- 
tire treasury of this grand lodge. A proposition, made in 1869, to 
tax the whole membership for the purpose of building a Masonic 
Temple at Detroit did not meet a favorable reception, and was con- 
sequently abandoned. 

The executive grand officers elect in 1871 were— 

John W. Champlin, of Grand Rapids, Grand Master. 

Henry Chamberlain, of Three Oaks, Deputy Gr. Master. 

Rufds W. Landon, of Niles, Grand Treasurer. 

James Fenton, of Detroit, Grand Secretary. 
For the following information we are indebted to the courtesy 
of the Gr. Sec'y, who from the lodge Returns for 1871 kindly sup 
plied the names of such secretaries as had refused or failed to reply 
to our circulars, mailed to each, requesting the favor of such reply. 
Otherwise, the Proceedings of G. L. for 1871 has been refered to.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized at the City of St. 
'Paul, Feb. 23, 1853, by the representatives of the three lodges in 
the State, chartered respectively by the grand lodges of Ohio, Wis- 
consin, and Illinois, and Dr. A. E. Ames was elected the first grand 
master. Its annual communications are held in the City of St. Paul 
in January. The increase of lodges since 1853 has kept pace with 
the increase of population. In 1871 there were 80 lodges, with a 
total membership of 4,588. During previous years a fund of $3,000 
had been invested for benevolent, which, in 1870, was nearly all 
spent for business purposes, and of which the principal amount 
was expended in publishing a reprint of the Proceedings of this 
grand lodge from 1853 to 1869, inclusive. A fine volume, bound 
in cloth, has been produced, the sales of which are expected to re- 
imburse the expenditure involved in the production of this book. 
The revenue for 1870 was $3,237.50. one half which was expended 
paying mileage and per diem to the officers and members of the G. 
L., after paying which the G. T. reported the entire treasury, inclu- 
ding all funds, at less than $2,000. 

The executive grand officers re-elected in 1871 were — 

C. W. Nash, of St. Paul. Grand* Master. 

G. Griswolp, of St. Charles, Deputy Grand Master. 

George L. Otis, of St. Paul, Grand Treasurer. 

William S. Combs, of St. Paul, Grand Secretary. 
The following information we collect from the Proceedings of G.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized on the 24th of 
April, 1821, at St. Louis, by representatives from the three lodges 
then in the territory, all holding charters from the G. L. of Tenn., 
the earliest of such charters being dated in October, 1816, and the 
latest in February, 1821, and Thos. F. Rennick was elected the first 
grand master. On the 4th of the following May at the installation 
instead of T. F. Renick, the grand master first installed was Nath- 
aniel B. Tucker. In 1825 Gen. Lafayette and his son, Geo. Wash- 
ington Lafayette, were elected by acclamation honorary members 
of this grand lodge, and being introduced, were received by the 
grand loge standing, an address being delivered by the Gr. Tr., to 
which Gen. Lafayette replied. In 1831 this grand lodge refused to 
adopt a proposition to dissolve, in view of the anti-masonic feeling 
then extant. In 1841 it purchased about 1350 acres of land, with 
the improvements thereon, with which to establish a Masonic Col- 
lege, and which College was dedicated on the 24th June, 1845. In 
1847 this College was located at Lexington, the citizens of that 
town having subscribed $33,000 for the erection of necessary buil- 
dings, of which the corner-stone was laid on the 18th May, 1847, 
the grand master G.-H. C. Melody presiding. An endowment fund 
of $53,000 was announced as the sale of scholarships, and the grand 
lodge made provision, up to I860, for the board, clothing, and edu- 
cation of one orphan from each Masonic District into which the 
State was then divided. In 1861 the College property was pres- 
ented to the State of Missouri, on the single condition that the State 
establish it as a first class Normal School, but, instead, it was dur- 
ing the subsequent four years converted into a Military School, 
then gradually abandoned, and on the 22d of March, 1870, the 
State reconveyed the property to the G. L., and in October of that 
year, a committee of that body was appointed to advertise for sale, 
and deed the whole property to the best bidder for it. 

This grand lodge holds its annual communications in October, 
in St. Louis. Past Masters are recognized as members. It pays

neither mileage nor per diem. Its attempt in 1869 to tax the mem- 
bership of the lodges $1 a year for a series of years, to buy a Ma- 
sonic Temple in St. Louis, was not favorably regarded, and the 
project being abandoned, the funds collected under the first year's 
levy were returned to the lodges. In 1870 there were 388 lodges, 
with a total membership of 18,493. The.business of the grand sec- 
retary is most efficiently performed by the present officer, and he 
is liberally paid. The G. L. Proceedings are printed on the finest 
paper, and in the best manner ; and this grand lodge, while not 
possessed of any treasury worthy of mention, is in easy circumstan- 
ces, and, without lowering its self-respect by discussing at length 
the merits of the object can and does donate of its means to charity 
as occasion demands. There are at present 38 Masonic Districts, 
for each of which a District D. G. M. is appointed. 
The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

Thomas E. Garrett of St. Louis, Grand Master 
Rufds E. Anderson, of Palmyra, Deputy Gr. Master. 
William N. Loker, of St. Louis, Grand Treasurer. 
Geo. Frank Gouley, of St. Louis, Grand Secretary. 

The following information we collect from the Proceedings of G. 
L.for 1871, with such changes made therein as the later data sup- 
plied by Breth'n lodge secretaries enabled us to make.

Tbe Grand Lodge in this State was informally organized by the 
representatives of three lodges in the State on the 27th July, 1818. 
Those lodges held charters respectively from the grand lodges of 
Kentucky and Tennessee. On the 25th of the following August a 
second convention was held, when this grand lodge was regularly 
organized, Henry Tooley being elected the first grand master. The 
annual communications are held in January at such place as may 
at the previous session be selected. That for 1871 was held at 
Vicksburg. when it appeared that there were 278 lodges with a 
total membership of 11.254 Master Masons. This grand lodge pays 
mileage and per diem to its members, among which Past Masters 
are recognized. The revenue reported in January, 1871, was suf- 
sufficient to pay $8,200 mileage, &c. and. after paying other allow- 
ances, the G. T. reported $56.75 on hand, with $162.28 due him 
for his commissions account. Since 1860 the lodges have decreased 
in this State 50 in number, while in membership those remaining 
have increased about ten per cent. The jurisdiction is divided in- 
to ten districts, with a District D. G. M. who is appointed by the G. 
M. elect, in charge of each. In April, 1871, this grand lodge was 
incorporated by the State legislature. 

The executive grand officers nearly all re-elected in 1871 were — 

George R. Fearn, of Canton, Grand Master. 

E. T. Henry, of Vicksburg, Deputy Gr. Master. 

Geo. H. Gray, Sr., of Clinton, Grand Treasurer. 

J. L. Power, of Jackson, Grand Secretary. 
The following information we collect from the Proceedings of G. 
L. for 1871, with such changes made therein as the later data sup- 
plied by Breth'n lodge secretaries enabled us to make.

The Grand Lodge in this Territory, was organized at Virginia 
City on the 24th January 1866, and John J. Hull, was elected the 
first grand master. Its annual communications occur in October, 
at such place as may at the previous session have been elected. 
In 1870 there were in the territory 14 lodges, with a total member- 
ship of about 500. This grand lodge recognizes Past Masters as 
members and voters, and pays all its officers and members mileage 
and per diem. Its revenues are barely sufficient to do so and meet 
necessary current expenses, at present 5 but time will correct this. 
The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 
N. P. Langford, of Helena, Grand Master. 
J. R. Weston, of Diamond City, Deputy Gr Master. 
Henry Ellixg, of Virginia, Grand Treasurer. 
Sol. Star, of Helena, Grand Secretary. 
From the Proceedings of the G. L. for 1870, with omissions cour- 
teously supplied by the grand Sec'y, the following information has 
been arranged.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized at Omaha City, on 
the 14th of September. 1857, by the representatives of three lodges 
in the State, the third of which had been chartered but in the pre- 
vious month of, June, and each of which had been chartered by a 
different grand lodge. R. C. Jordan was chosen as the first grand 
master. Its annual communications occur in June, at such place 
as may at the previous session be elected. An annual tax of fifty 
cents per capita is levied upon the membership at large to create 
an '• Orphan's Educational Fund." In 1870 this fund amounted to 
$2,634.21, and placed by its Trustees at 12 percent, interest. The 
annual revenue of this grand lodge is sufficient to meet current ex- 
penses, and also to pay mileage and per diem to its officers and 
members, the amount of the latter, in 1870, being $377.20. In that 
year there were in the jurisdiction 31 lodges, with a total member- 
ship of 1379. The business of this grand lodge, as is apparent 
from the well-arranged and printed Proceedings for 1870. is by the 
present grand officers conducted in the best manner, and at a mod- 
erate charge for current expenses. As an efficient officer the pre- 
sent grand secretary is duly recognized from the fact that, aftei 
serving four years in that office, he was elected successively D. G. 
M. and G. M., to which latter office he was re-elected in 1866, and, 
in 1869, again re-elected to the office of Gr. Sec'y. 

The executive grand officers, all re-elected in 1870, were — 

H. P. Deuel, of Omaha City, Grand Master. 
W. E. Hill, of Nebraska City, Deputy Gr. Master. 
Geo. B. Graff, of Omaha City, Grand Treasurer. 
R. W. Furnas, of Brownsville. Grand Secretary. 

The following information we collect from the Proceedings of G. 
L. for 1870. with such changes made therein as the later data sup- 
plied by Bretlvn lodge secretaries enabled us to make.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized at Dartmouth, on 
the 8th of July, 1789, by delegates from all the lodges in the State 
at that time, and consequently this must be regarded* as the first 
independent grand lodge that was thus regularly constituted in all 
North America. Hon. John Sullivan, then President of the State 
of N. H., (before the title " Governor ") was the first grand master. 
This grand lodge has annual and semi-annual communications, the 
first occuring on the 18th and 19th of May, and the last on the 28th 
of December. In 1870 there were 71 lodges in the jurisdiction, and 
a total membership of 6,612 Master Masons. This grand lodge de- 
rives its revenue but from dispensations, charters, diplomas, and 
a tax on initiations ; and as the increase of membership is necessa- 
rily slow in a State whose population is decreasing, the revenue of 
this grand lodge is therefore very limited, and barely sufficient to 
meet current expenses. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

John R. Holbrook, of Portsmouth, Grand Master. 
N. M. Comner, of Manchester, Deputy Gr. Master, 
Daniel R. Barret, of Nashua, Grand Treasurer. 
Abel Hdtchins, of Concord, Grand Secretary. 

From the well-printed Proceedings of this grand lodge for 1870 
we present the following list of the lodges in this State. Wherein 
it differs the information has been more recently supplied by the 
lodge secretaries, in response to our circulars.

The Grand Lodge of this State was organized on the 12th Octo- 
ber, 1865, at Virginia City, being the year in which the State of 
Nevada was cut off mainly from California, and at which time there 
were in the former eight lodges, all chartered by the G. L. of the 
latter State. Its annual communications occur in September, at 
Virginia City. It pays neither mileage nor per diem to officers or 
members. Its revenue, equal in 1870 to $2.20 per capita from its 
total membership, was but sufficient to meet current expenses. In 
that year there were in the State 14 lodges, with 992 members. 
The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

George Robtxsox, of Washoe City, Grand Master. 

M. A. Sawtelle. of Austin, Deputy Grand Master. 

Samuel W. Chubbuck, of Gold Hill, Grand Treasurer. 

Wm. A. M. Van Bokkelen. of Virginia, Grand Secretary.

According to the latest history of the matter — that published by 
the grand secretary in 1870 — the Grand Lodge in this State was 
organized at the town of New Brunswick, on the 18th December, 
17fc6, by an assembly of Master Masons, hailing indifferently from 
lodges in that and other States. It was a singular affair and unique 
in the manner of it. Beyond the choice in some way expressed (it 
does not appear that they were elected by ballot,) of seven grand 
officers, this " association " at that time proceeded not. Of those 
officers Hon. David Brearley, then the Chief Justice of New Jersey, 
was chosen the first grand master. Of what lodge he was a mem- 
ber, if of any in that State or any other, does not appear ; and the 
same can be remarked of his deputy. On the 30th of the following 
January those seven officers, being the usual six elect with the ad- 
dition of a deputy grand secretary, were installed, and thereupon 
this grand lodge immediately began to exercise the functions of 
such a body, by chartering lodges, &c. After July, 1789, Hon. D. 
Brearley. however, no more appears as grand master, although in 
the subsequent January he was " re-appointed " grand master, and 
installed by proxy, nor is there any reason assigned for his disap- 
pearance. After the July session, in 1790. the endorsement of the 
new " Rules and Regulations " then adopted shows that there were 
at this time 8 lodges in the State, numbered from 1 to 8, inclusive, 
all of which had been originally dispensated and subsequently 
warranted (chartered) by this grand lodge ; and thus proving that 
in the State of New Jersey there existed but one lodge on the 18th 
Dec. 1786. viz. St. John's, (location not given but believed to be the 
then town of Newark,) of which Moses Ogden, then present, signed 
himself a member. In his introductory remarks Bro. Hough, it is 
true, asserts that " Lodge, No. 10 " was in 1786 located at Bedmin- 
ster, and " Lodge, No. 32 " at Burlington ; but he subsequently ren- 
ders the fact clear that both of those lodges had ceased to work for 
some years previous, that in consequence their warrants had been 
called in by the G. L. in Pennsylvania, on whose registry they had 

[150] 



GRAND LODGE IX NEW JERSEY. 151 

stood, and that they were entirely extinct by 1786. Hence it is 
evident that those who hailed from either of them at the assembly 
of Dec. 1^. 1786, did 80 simply as quondam officers and members, 
and in no wise as delegates ; particularly so was this the case with 
regard to those of '• No. 10. ' 7 for in the latter part of the minutes, 
written 13th January. 17&7, "No. 10, Pennsylvania," follows the 
names of all but one oi those who attached their signatures on that 
occasion, as endorsers of the previous (Dec. 18) movement. It may 
be added that of those endorsers, sixteen in all. twelve hailed from 
lodges in Pennsylvania, (including those from "No. 10,") and three 
respectively from Albany, N Y., Boston, Mass., and Liverpool, 
England. 

From the year 1790 this grand lodge seems to have been con- 
ducted in a carefully circumspect manner. In January, 1791, new 
officers were chosen, among which, of the original officers, only ap- 
pear the grand master elect and deputy grand secretary. That the 
organization was entirely satisfactory is evident, as no subsequent 
attempt to organize a grand lodge in what is to-day considered the 
regular manner seems to have been at any time even suggested ; 
and this is certainly a pungent sarcasm on those hodiernal Masonic 
jurisconsults, who decide as incorrect and the organization irregu- 
lar, if not clandestine, any movement not in accord with their dicta 
having for its object the establishment of a grand lodge of Ancient 
Free and Accepted Masons. 

The annual communications of this grand lodge occur in Janua- 
ry, usually at Trenton. In 1871 there were in the jurisdiction 118 
lodges with 9,164 members. Unlike other grand lodges, in this the 
first six elective officers attend to their official duties during the 
year, and report at the annual- session ; consequently, instead of 
but four, there are six executive grand officers elect, and who for 
1871 were— 

Wm. E. Pine, of Cresskill, Grand Master. 

Wm. W. Goodwin, of Camden, Deputy Gr. Master. 

Nathan Hatnes, of Burlington, Senior Gr. Warden, 

James V. Bentley, of Morristown, Junior Gr. Warden. 

Wm. R. Clapp, of Trenton, Grand Treasurer. 

Joseph H. Hough, of Trenton, Grand Secretary. 
•This grand lodge has nothing invested in real estate. It pays 



152 GENERAL MASONIC REGISTER. 

neither mileage nor per diem to officers or members. It appoints a 
deputy grand secretary, who is paid his expenses only, also a grand 
lecturer, whose services being continuous he is paid a fair recom- 
pense. The revenue is modest, and but sufficient to meet current

Jtero 2[or(L 



The Grand Lodge in this State has been organized at various 
times. As early as 1782 a Provincial Grand Lodge was chartered 
by that London grand lodge of which Laurence Dermott was grand 
secretary, which became independent in 1783 by resignation of the 
original officers and their departure with the British troops when 
they evacuated New York City ; but for many years this body was 
not recognized as having jurisdiction over the brethren within the 
whole State. Subsequently there were extant for some years a 
" City " grand lodge and a " Country " grand lodge, which, in 1827, 
united for more effective resistance to the anti-masonic excitement, 
which at that time had attained considerable force. Until 1836 this 
united grand lodge was supreme, but, in that year, a body styled 
4i St. John's Grand Lodge " was organized by brethren who con- 
sidered themselves harshly treated and unduly punished by the G. 
L. endorsing the action of a " Grand Steward's Lodge ;" and for 
thirteen years this " St. John's Grand Lodge " performed all the 
functions of such an organization, and until 1850, when it coalesced 
with what for one year had then been known as the " Willard," or 
generally recognized grand lodge, in contradistinction to a third 
body organized in 1849, and known as the irregular, or " Phillips" 
grand lodge, and which for nine years performed all the functions 
of a grand lodge until, in 1858, it amalgamated with the other, on 
terms satisfactory to both ; and since which time there has been but 
one grand lodge in the State of New York — the largest Masonic 
grand lodge jurisdiction at present in North America. 

The annual sessions of this grand lodge are held in the City of 
New York, commencing on the first Tuesday of June. In 1871 
there were holding under this grand lodge 656 lodges, with a total 
membership of 77,079 Master Masons — an average of 102 members 
to each lodge. Those lodges are divided into 25 districts, with 
each in charge of a List. D. G. M., who is appointed by the grand 
master elect, and reports annually. The annual revenue received 
from the lodges by this grand lodge amounts to about $65,000, one-

third of which, taxed on initiations, is passed to the credit of the 
"Hall and Asylum Fund." and subsequent to 1871 this amount 
will be increased by 25 cents per capita of the total membership in 
the State, or equal at present to about $20,000 more. To the var- 
ious '-Relief Lodges'' in the State this grand lodge pays annually 
about $6,500, and about $1000 to especially deserving objects of 
its charity, a few of whom may be regarded as pensioners upon its 
bounty. The balance of its annual revenue is expended paying 
mileage and per diem to members, salaries to its officers, and the 
necessary current expenses. Within the past few years every les- 
ser consideration has been merged in the erection of a grand tem- 
ple, for which the "Hall and Asylum Fund," — the accumulation 
of many years and various combinations — has been appropriated. 
With $340,000 invested in the land upon which this temple is in 
course of erection, in the City of New York, and, to May 1S71, about 
$100,000 expended in construction, &c, with the earnest efforts of 
the Trustees to keep out of debt, the certain completion of this tem- 
ple is in no wise doubtful. Those Trustees are the first five officers 
elect of the grand lodge, and hence the re-election of those officers 
during the construction of the temple becomes necessary, to the 
end that they be allowed to execute the trust confided to them in 
manner satisfactory to themselves and the large and wealthy con- 
stituency they represent. 

These officers, therefore, re-elected in 1871 were — 

John H. Anthon, of New York City, Grand Master. 

Christopher G. Fox. of Buffalo, Deputy Gr Master. 

Edmund L. Judson, of Albany, Senior Gr. Warden. 

James W. Husted, of Peekskill. Junior Gr. Warden. 

John W. Simons, of N. Y. City, Grand Treasurer. 

James M. Austin, of N. Y. City, Grand Secretary. 

For the following information we are indebted to the courtesy 
of the Gr. Sec'y, who from the lodge Returns for 1871 kindly sup- 
plied the names of such secretaries as had refused or failed to reply 
to our circulars, mailed to each, requesting the favor of such reply, 
and carefully corrected the whole list, including the membership 
column, wherever our manuscript was incorrect. Otherwise, the 
uniformly well-arranged and printed Transactions of G. L. for 1871 
has been refered to.

jtout§ (Caroftna. 



According to the best information obtainable, the first indepen- 
dent grand lodge in this State was organized in 1787 by a conven- 
tion of brethren, in manner somewhat like the movement in New 
Jersey the previous year, to the extent at least that the members 
of this convention were not appointed by any lodge for the work 
they performed at Hillsborough, except, it may be, those who rep- 
resented the lodge at that place. Indeed the movement may be 
considered as. mainly, the act of that lodge. The Hon. Samuel 
Johnson, President of the State, was elected the first grand mas- 
ter — an act which was of itself, at the time, sufficient to legalize 
the performance, and neutralize any opposition that might be met. 
There is no evidence, however, that any such was offered. In those 
days Masonic grand lodges did not spring up in a night armed for 
battle ; they excited little attention or question as to the legal or 
illegal manner of their organization, as they had exercised but lit- 
tle consequence in the spread of Masonry. It is but in our own 
day that nice shades of regularity are striven for in this matter, 
and their attainment regarded necessary. 

This grand lodge holds its annual communication in the City of 
Raleigh in December. In Dec. 1S70 there were holding under its 
charters 199, lodges, with 10,204 members. To this the Gr. Sec'y 
adds 905, as " obtained from the last returns of lodges failing to 
make returns in 1870," and thus obtains a " total membership and 
resident Masons not members of lodges" of 11,109. This grand 
lodge pays neither mileage nor per diem. Its revenue in 1^70 was 
$2,986.48, and after the necessary payments were made the G. T. 
reported a balance in hand of $779.68. This grand lodge owns 
the wreck of a property, located in the town of Oxford, known as 
" Saint John's College." and which is in its present valueless condi- 
tion incumbered with claims amounting to about $4,000. The 
latest decision of the grand lodge concerning it is to sell it if pos- 
sible — a matter that previous efforts renders doubtful.

The executive grand officers elected (the D. G. M. is appointed,) 
in 1870 were— 

Charles G. Clark, of New Berne, Grand Master. 
Joseph B. Batchelor, of Raleigh, Deputy Gr. Master. 
Wm. E. Anderson, of Raleigh, Grand Treasurer. 
Donald W. Bain, of Raleigh, Grand Secretary. 
The following list is obtained from the printed Proceedings of 
the G. L. for 1870, exclusively, no circulars having been sent to the

The following account of the organization of the Grand Lodge in 
this State, copied from the American Freemason for April, 1870, is 
worthy of a place in this connection, as being quite exact : 

" On the 4th of January 1808, it was decided by the representatives of five of 
the six lodges then existing in this State, who had met in convention for that 
purpose in Chillicothe, then the capital of the State, to organize a grand lodge. 
Those lodges were located, respectively, at Marietta, Cincinnati, Chillicothe, War- 
ren and Zanesville. The sixth lodge, located at Worthington, was also represent- 
ed, but the credentials of its represent ative being pronounced informal, a seat in 
the convention was refused him. Four days were occupied with the proceedings 
of this convention, and, at their close, eleven brethern, constituting the total rep- 
resentation, subscribed their names to the proceedings, after electing nine of their 
number officers of the proposed grand lodge, and a tenth, not present, Gen. Rufus 
Putnam, then resident at Marietta, grand master. On tbe succeeding 2d of Janu- 
ary, representatives from four of those lodges eleven in number, met at the same 
place, and being in doubt whether there were a sufficient number of lodges repre- 
sented to organize a grand lodge — Dermott's Ahimati Rezon being their guide, and 
it requiring five — finally concluded to organize, and, having done so, they pre- 
pared a circular letter to the other grand lodges in the United States, announcing 
their organization ; then, after adopting for the time being the constitution of the 
Grand Lodge of Kentucky, a Past Masters' Lodge was opened, and the Deputy Gr. 
Master elect, Thomas Henderson, of Cincinnati Lodge was introduced by the ^fen'r 
Gr. Warden elect, and by him duly installed. The Past Masters' Lodge was then 
closed, and a Master's lodge opened, when " the several subordinate officers elect- 
ed by the convention" the previous January " were, by the Deputy G. M. regu- 
larly installed.'' In a letter very creditable to the old hero, Gen. Putnam resigned, 
and the grand lodge thereupon went into election of officers for the year 1809. But 
ten delegates being present, they were all elected and installed, with Samuel Hun- 
tington, of Erie Lodge, at Warren in Trumbull County, as Grand Master, and who 
was, therefore, the first actual grand master the brethren in Ohio ever had ; while 
Gen. Lewis Cass, then representing Amity Lodge, at Zanesville, was the first actual 
deputy grand master. 

" A precedent established by necessity was exercised, it will be observed, in the 
fact that the brethren did not look beyond their own assembly for a grand officer 
to install them. The Senior Gr. Warden elect, George Tod, did, on this occasion, 
install the Dep. Gr. Mr. Thomas Henderson, before he was installed himself, ami 
thereupon the Dep. G. M. Henderson installed Tod and all the other officers elect, 
including the grand master."

LODGES IN OHIO. 179 

This grand lodge has no stated place of meeting : its annual com- 
munications are held at the place elected at the previous meeting 
in October. In 1870 there were 403 lodges, with a total member- 
ship of 24,087. The annual revenue of this grand lodge is suffici- 
ent to pay mileage and per diem, the current expenses, and gener- 
ally leaves a surplus which, in 1870, the grand treasurer reported 
had accumulated in his hands to the sum of $11,805 .96. Compared 
with the constituency, the expenses of the grand secretary's office 
is the least known to any grand lodge, being for salaries, postage, 
and office rent, fuel, light, and stationery, about $3 for each lodge 
in the jurisdiction. 

The executive grand officers, all re-elected in 1870, were — 

Alex. H. Newcomb, of Toledo, Grand Master. 

Philip M. Wagexhalls, of Lancaster, Dep. Gr. Master. 

Flavics J. Phillips, of Georgetown, Grand Treasurer. 

John D. Caldwell, of Cincinnati, Grand Secretary. 
From the Proceedings of the G. L. for 1870, with omissions cour- 
teously supplied by the grand Sec'y, the following information has

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized at Oregon City on 
the 16th August, 1851, by three lodges, two of which held charters 
from the G. L. of California, and Berryman Jennings was elected 
the first grand master. The annual communications are held in 
June at such place as may at the preceding meeting be elected. In 
1870 there were at work 39 lodges, with 1441 members. This 
grand lodge has chartered in all 50 lodges. Of those the charters 
of six were surrendered for sufficient cause ; four became constitu- 
ents of the G. L. in Washington Territory, and three of that in Ida- 
ho Territory. This grand lodge pays mileage and per diem to its 
members. Its cash revenue is moderate, being in 1870 reported at 
about $2,000, the same being insufficient to pay the matter of mile- 
age and per diem for that year — two representatives having over 
800 miles to travel, and one nearly 900. and all paid at the rate of 
15 cents a mile. This grand lodge, it would seem, does much of 
its business on time payments, taking and giving promissory notes. 
It has an " Educational Fund." loaned on bond and mortgage — a 
matter of voluntary subscription authorized by resolution of the 
grand lodge in 1854, and in 1869 by same declared to be irreduci- 
ble, but that it be allowed to accumulate for five years, by adding 
interest to principal. In 1870 this fund amounted to $10,400, and 
the ultimate disposition of it is yet to be determined. There is 
also a Relief Fund, of uncertain amount, contributed by a minor 
part of the lodges, and the disposition of which seems to be limited 
annually to a few beneficiaries. 

The executive grand officers, all re-elected in 1870, were — 

D. G. Clark, of Corvallis, Grand Master. 

T. McF. Patton, of Salem, Dep. Gr. Master. 

B. F. Brown, of Salem, Grand Treasurer. 

J. E. Hurford, of Portland, Grand Secretary. 
From the Proceedings of the G. L. for 1870 the following list is 
compiled.

'roe Grand Lodge in this State was organized at Philadelphia by 
the representatives of about one half of the lodges in the State on 
the 26th of September, 1786, or three months previous to the New 
Jersey movement, and three years subsequent to the evacuation of 
the United States by the British forces. It holds quarterly commu- 
nications, and, on the 27th of December, a grand annual commu- 
nication in Philadelphia, when the election of officers takes place. 
In 1871 there were 315 lodges in the jurisdiction, and, up to 27th 
Dec. 1870, there were reported 30.488 members as belonging to but 
269 of those lodges, leaving the true membership of 46 lodges un- 
known to the reader of G. L. Proceedings for that year, but estim- 
ated by the grand master in his address at 2,470. The principal 
business of this grand lodge is the construction of the New Temple 
in Philadelphia, upon which, for the purchase of the site and con- 
struction accounts to Dec. 1870, there had been expended $619,614. 
To raise a great part of this money, and continue the construction 
to completion every resource and asset is pressed into the service. 
A bonded loan has been put on the market from which there had 
been realized up to the above date $514,325. In this the Grand 
Charity Fund of $50,000, the Girard Fund of $50,000, with their 
unexpended interest acccumulations in addition, have been invest- 
ed, while the balance realized from the loan up to that date had 
been taken by the Grand Chapter of Pennsylvania, 52 lodges, 14 
Mark Lodges, Chapters and Encampments, principally in Phila- 
delphia, " 25 lodges, etc., of kindred societies, such as Odd Fel- 
lows, Knights of Pythias, United Americans, &c. and 172 individ- 
uals." All fees, including charter fees and fees for the degrees, have 
been raised, the former to $200, and the latter in Philadelphia city 
and county lodges to $75. and in all others to $40. It is expected 
that these extraordinary measures, and the continued sale of the 
bonded loan, will enable the building committee to complete the 
New Temple. The financial affairs of the grand lodge are in keep

ing of men of ability, and who will, its believed, conduct them to 
a successful issue. 

The jurisdiction is divided into 28 districts, each in charge of a 
a District D. G. M. appointed by the G. M. elect. If they report, 
such reports do not appear in the G. L. Proceedings — these for 
1871 being mainly occupied with For. Cor. and Building Commit- 
tees and Charity Funds reports, and the address of the grand mas- 
ter, and contain little if any information of a statistical character 
concerning the condition of the lodges. 

The executive grand officers re-elected for 1871 were — 

Robert A. Lambertox, of Harrisburg, Grand Master. 
Samuel C. Perkins, of Philadelphia, Deputy Gr. Master. 
Peter Williamson, of Philadelphia. Grand Treasurer 
John Thompson, of Phildelphia. Grand Secretary. 

For the following information we are indebted to the Proceed- 
ings of the grand lodge for 1869-'70- J 71, Manning's Masonic Regis- 
ter for 1871. and the returns received from the Secretaries, in reply 
to our circulars addressed to them.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized at Providence, on 
the 6th of April. 1791. by the only two lodges then in the State, 
and which had been both chartered by the Provincial grand lodge 
of Massachusetts. Christopher Champlin was elected the first grand 
master. Not until 1799 did a third lodge exist in Rhode Island, 
such third lodge being chartered by this grand lodge. The maso- 
nic year ends in March, and the annual communication in Decem- 
ber. In 1870 there were 25 lodges, with a. 335 members of all grades. 
By ih is grand lodge no dues are exacted from the lodges except $4 
per capita for new " makings," consequently the revenue is but 
sufficient to meet current expenses. There being no dues exacted 
by the grand lodge, the same rule prevails among the lodges, hence 
there is no discipline for nonpayment of dues. Masonry in this. 
State, as in Connecticut adjoining, is not a joint stock monied cor- 
poration, but a fraternity, under the direction of a master. 
The executive grand officers elected for 1S71 were— 

Thomas A. Doyle, of Providence, Grand Master. 

Lloyd Morton, of Pawtucket, Deputy Gr. Master. 

Gardner T. Swarts. of Providence, Grand Treasurer. 

Edward B. Knight, of Providence. Grand Secretary. 
From the Proceedings of the G. L. for 1870 the following list is 
compiled. Where it differs the information has been supplied by 
the lodge secretary.

Tbe Grand Lodge in this State was organized in 1817 for the last 
time by the final union of the two grand lodges which, for some 
years previously had. together and separately, exercised equal ju- 
risdiction, the one known as the Grand Lodge of South Carolina, 
and the other as the Grand Lodge of Ancient York Masons. The 
first derived its authority through appointments by G. M's of Grand 
Lodge of England, and the second through charters granted by 
Laurence Dermott's grand lodge ; and not until four years after the 
union in England of those grand lodges did a uniou in South Car- 
olina of fheir offspring take place. The annual communication of 
this grand lodge convenes at Charleston in November. In 1870 
there were 146 lodges, with 6,200 members, in the jurisdiction. 
The report of a committee on G. T's books made it apparent that 
in Nov.. 1870, this grand lodge was about $4,000 short. It pays 
mileage and per diem, and has a Grand Hall in the City of Char- 
leston, which it is proposed to sell and build a new one that will 
be a more profitable investment. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 
Wm. K. Blake, of Spartanburg. Grand Master. 
R. S. Bruns, of Charleston, Deputy Grand Master. 
W. H. Schroeder, of Charleston, Grand Treasurer. 
B. Rush Campbell, of Charleston, Grand Secretary. 

Repeated applications to the grand secretary, continued up to the 
last day the preparation of these plates could be delayed, having 
failed in eliciting from him any response, either with or without a 
list of the lodge secretaries' names, we are unable to present them 
more completely than we here do — those given being supplied us 
directly in response to our circulars.

Tennessee. 



The Grand Lodge in this State was organized at Knoxville, on 
27th December. 1813, by representatives of the several lodges in 
the State which held charters from the G. L. of No. Carolina, and 
Thomas Claiborne was elected the first grand master. The annual 
communication occurs at Nashville in October. In 1870 there were 
338 lodges, with 18.(501 members. This grand lodge pays mileage 
and per diem. At the 1870 annual session, after $13,856. GO was 
disbursed by him, the balance in G. Tr's hands was $219.85. The 
annual revenue is about $10,000. A very effective effort is being 
made in this jurisdiction to have a fund equal to $1000 from each 
lodge in it raised to endow an Orphans' Home. Up to 1870 about 
$80,000 had been pledged by about as many lodges. An Act of 
the Tennessee legislature passed on the 30th Nov., 1869, incorpo- 
rates the " Masonic Orphans' Home, and for other purposes," of 
which Thomas Anderson is president. The " other purposes," cov- 
ers life insurance privileges, giving the corporators power to go 
into that business in aid of the endowment. This feature may be 
regarded as the hodiernal substitute for the lottery incorporations 
of other days ; and while, in the event of failure to suitably endow 
the ••home," the subscriptions are returnable to the subscribers, 
the money derived from this feature is liable and excepted. This 
privilege, up to 1870. had not been put into operation, and proba- 
bly will not be, as the subscriptions have been liberal, and it is 
deemed best not to hazard the success of the ' ; home " project by 
speculating in human life assurance. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were— 

John C. Brown, of Pulaski, Grand Master. 

Towxsend A. Thomas, of Clarksville, Dep. Gr. Master. 

Joux M'Cleixaxd, of Nashville. Grand Treasurer. 

Johx Frizzell, of Nashville, Grand Secretary. 
From the G. L. Proceedings for 1870 we arrange the following 
information, in which the names of Secretaries not received in re- 
ply to our request have been courteously supplied by the grand 
secretary, Cro. John Frizzell.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized at Houston, on 
the 20th December. 1837, by representatives from the three lodges 
then in the State, holding charters from the G. L. of Louisiana, and 
Anson Jones was elected the first grand master. Its annual com- 
munication takes place at Houston in June. In 1870 there were 
263 lodges with 11.500 members. This grand lodge is constructing 
a Masonic Temple at Houston. Its revenue for year ending in June 
1870, was about $10,000. Of this $1,147 was contributed to the 
Grand Charity Fund — a fund that, like nearly all of the kind, is a 
Charity Fund but in name, and, also like them, sunk in a new 
temple. This immense State is at present divided into thirty-five 
Masonic Districts, for each of which a Dist. Deputy G. M. is ap- 
pointed, and whose expenses of visiting the lodges are paid by the 
grand lodge, unless provided for by the lodges visited. Neither 
mileage nor per diem are paid by this grand lodge, and the atten- 
dance, consequently, of members is sparse, the lodges being repre- 
sented in great part by proxy. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 
Clinton M. Winkler, of Corsicana, Grand Master. 
T. J. H. Anderson, of Port Sullivan, Dep. Gr. Master. 
Bexj. A. Botts, of Houston, Grand Treasurer. 
Geo. H. Bringhurst, of Houston, Grand Secretary. 

From the Proceedings of the G. L. for 1870 the following list is 
compiled. Where it differs the information has been supplied by 
the lodge secretary.

TTermonf. 



The Grand Lodge in this State was organized by the represent- 
atives of the lodges in the State on the 19th of October, 1794. The 
number of those lodges we have been unable to ascertain. In the 
early provincial times Vermont was claimed as a part of N. York; 
but whether this fact led brethren to apply to any Prov. G. M. in 
the latter for a lodge charter, and receive the same, or not, we are 
at present unable to determine. Not previous to 1781 does there 
appear to have been a lodge in Vt. In that year one was chartered 
by the Boston 1777 grand lodge, and it subsequently was known 
as Vermont Lodge, No. 1. Four years afterward .another lodge 
was chartered by the same authority, and there is no evidence at 
our command, nor can we ascertain from any record, that more than 
those two lodges existed in that State when the grand lodge was 
organized in 1794, nor at any previous time. 'We are thus parti- 
cular in the expression of this matter, as the fact that two lodges, 
if they compose the whole number within a grand lodge jurisdic- 
tion, are as competent to organize a grand lodge as any greater 
number has been established by the action of such a number, re- 
spectively, in the States of Rhode Island and Vermont. 

In 1870 there were 91 lodges with a total membership of 7.747 
within the jurisdiction of this grand lodge. Paying mileage and 
per diem, with a revenue of about $1,000, necessarily leaves a low 
treasury. With an accumulated Charity Fund of less than $500, 
its total assets in 1870 were about $3,500. There are 14 Dist. Dep. 
G. M's in charge each of a Masonic District, after the manner in 
other States. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

George M. Hall, of Swanton, Grand Master. 

Park Davis, of St. Alban's, Dep. Gr. Master. 

Chas. W. AVoodhouse. of Burlington, Grand Treasurer. 

Henry Clark, of Rutland, Grand Secretary. 
From the Proceedings of the G. L. for 1870 the following list is 
compiled. Where it differs the information has been supplied by 
the lodge secretary.

According to the most reliable information, viz. that contained 
in an address of the veteran grand secretary Bro. John Dove, M. 
D., of Richmond, Va. on the history of the G. L. of Va., four of 
the lodges in the State did, on the 13th of October, 1778, organize 
the Grand Lodge- in this State by the election of John Blair as the 
first grand master. At the time tbere were in this State lodges 
holding charters respectively from grand lodges in England. Scot- 
land, and Ireland, and a Prov. G. M. in Pennsylvania. No other 
organization of a grand lodge subsequently took place — the lodges 
of the various registers gradually, after the ratification of peace be- 
tween Great Britain and America, submitting to the organization 
of 1778 above mentioned. In 1870 there were 173 lodges and 8,555 
members. The revenue is about $5,000 a year, and as this grand 
lodge pays neither mileage nor per diem, it is sufficient to meet all 
necessary current expenses. This grand lodge has funded proper- 
ty to the value in 1870 of $26,600, the principal part of which 
comprises the capital stock of the Masonic Temple Association, 
the object of which is the erection of the New Masonic Temple in 
the City of Richmond The State is divided into 29 districts, each 
in. charge of a Dist. D. G. M. appointed by the G. M. elect. This 
grand lodge has no Deputy G. M. — the duties of that officer being, 
administered by a Grand Lecturer. The ann. com. is in December. 
The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

Thomas F. Owexs, of Richmond. Grand Master. 

Johx Dove, of Richmond, Grand Secretary. 

Wm. B. Isaacs, of Richmond, Deputy Gr. Secretary. 

Tuos. U. Dudley, of Richmond, Grand Treasurer. 

James Evans, of Richmond, Grand Lecturer. 
From the well-printed Proceedings of this grand lodge for 1870 
we present the following list of the lodges in this State. Wherein 
it differs the information has been more recently supplied by the 
lodge secretaries, in response to our circulars.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized on the 10th of 
May, 1865. by delegates from nine lodges, who met for that purpose 
at Fairmont, and W. J. Bates, was the first grand master. The an- 
nual communication takes place at Wheeling in November. In 
1870 there were 43 lodges, with 2.140 members, and three lodges 
in the State holding the charters of and subject only to the G. L. of 
Virginia, under which they were organized. No difficulty has fol- 
lowed this arrangement. At the annual communication for 1870 it 
was resoved to thereafter pay mileage and per diem to the repre- 
sentatives. The revenue up to that year had been sufficient to meet 
current expenses, and leave a balance of $545 in the treasury. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 
Wm. J. Bates, of Wheeling. Grand Master. 
Robert White, of Romney, Deputy Grand Master. 
Wm. P. Wilson, of Wheeling. Grand Treasurer. 
Thos. Logan, of Wheeling, Grand Secretary. 

From the well-printed Proceedings of this grand lodge for 1870 
we present the following list of the lodges in this State. Wherein 
it differs the information has been more recently supplied by the 
lodge secretaries, in response to our circulars.

The Grand Lodge in this State was organized at Madison on the 
18th of December, 1843, by representatives from the three lodges 
then in the State, and which at present stand first on the list, all 
chartered originally by the G. L. of Mo., and B. T. Kavanaugh, 
then W. M. of Melody Lodge, of Platteville, although not present, 
was elected the first grand- master. The annual communication 
takes place at Milwaukee in June. In June, 1870, there were 160 
lodges, with 8,944 members in the State. Although this grand 
lodge pays mileage and per diem, the revenue is sufficient to meet 
current expenses, and there .was a balance on hand and invested 
at the above date of $10,065.96. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

Gabriel Bouck. of Oshkosh, Grand Master. 

J. Hamilton, of Milwaukee, Deputy Gr. Master, 

Wm. H. Hixer, of Fond du Lac, Grand Treasurer.

A Grand Lodge for this Province was organized on the 24th of 
Dec, 1867, at Victoria. Vancouver's Island, by representatives 
from the four lodges in the Colony, and Isa. W. Powell was elected 
the first grand master. No information later than 1869 has been 
received from there, and hence our register of this body must be 
and remain imperfect. Four lodges with 142 members, so far as 
known, are all which were in the province in May, 1869. Of these 
lodges three were originally chartered by the G. L. of Scotland, 
and one by the G. L. of Englaud. II. F. IIeistekmax, of Victoria, 
is the present grand Secretary. 



CCana&.tt. 



The grand lodge which has jurisdiction in the upper or western 
province of the British Dominion of Canada, at present known as 
Ontario, is styled the Grand Lodge of Canada, and which name, 
since the organization and general recognition of a grand lodge in 
the lower or eastern province known as Quebec, is regarded a mis- 
nomer. In'1855 the first earnest movement took place toward the 
organization of a grand lodge for those interior provinces, formerly 
known as Upper and Lower, and then as Western and Eastern 
Canada, and in October of that year such a grand lodge was erect- 
ed, with Wm. M. Wilson as the first grand master. But this grand 
lodge, though claiming such, did not exercise jurisdiction to any 
extent in the now province of Quebec until the year 1857, when 
the differences between this grand lodge and the lodges yet adher- 
ing to the British provincial grand masters being in great measure 
reconciled, one grand lodge was erected under the name and style 
of the Grand Lodge of Canada, and of which Sir Allan N. McNab, 
the senior Provincial, was elected the first grand master. Not be- 
ing for some time afterwards recognized or acknowledged by the 
Grand Lodge of England, several lodges were, notwithstanding the 
rightful claim of the new grand lodge, allowed-to remain in obed- 
ience to the British grand lodge from which they held their chart- 
ers, and, in 1859, by arrangement of the respective grand masters 
of the G. Lodges of England and Canada, such lodges were not 
required to transfer their allegiance to the latter. This was the 
condition when the grand lodge was organized in 1869 at Quebec, 
and a majority of those lodges entered into that organization. 

The Grand Lodge of Canada holds its annual communication in 
July, at that place which may at the previous ann. com. be elect- 
ed. In 1870 there were carried on its register 229 lodges, with 
9,991 members, of which numbers 21 lodges with 990 members (as 
per their reports for 1809.) did not report in 1870 to the G. L. of C, 
having transfered their allegiance to the G. L. of Quebec. The

additions to the register of 1870--the 21 lodges above mentioned 
being dropped from it by us to appear in the Quebec register — 
have been courteously made by the grand secretary, in response 
to our request, and is. therefore, correct to July. 3871. This grand 
lodge is arranged upon the model of the G. L. of England, and 
with a Board of General Purposes, allows similar latitude of lodge 
representation. It pays neither mileage nor per diem. After the 
same model, its treasury is divided into various "funds," which, 
in 1870, amounted in the aggregate to over $40,000. 
The principal grand officers elected in 1871 were — 

James Seymour, of St. Catharine's, Grand Master. 
Thos. White, of Montreal, Deputy Gr. Master, 
Henry Groff, of Siracoe. Grand Treasurer. 
Thos. B. Harris, of Hamilton, Grand Secretary.

The Grand Lodge in this Province was organized at St. John 
in September, 1867. by a majority of the lodges in the province, 
and B. Lester Peters was elected the first grand master. Its annu- 
al communication takes place in September at the City of St. John, 
and there were at that meeting in 1870 the representatives of a ma- 
jority of 26 lodges, with 1593 contributing members. The manner 
of the G. L. of England is followed as nearly as is possible in the 
management of this grand lodge. An elective officer in the other 
American grand lodges, in this the grand secretary is subject to 
appointment of the grand master elect, although paid by the grand 
lodge. The grand master also appoints a Board of General Pur- 
poses, consisting of ten members of the grand lodge, selected from 
among the senior and past grand officers, such Board being com- 
pleted by the accession of the six principal grand officers, as ex- 
officio members. At its first meeting this Board is organized by the 
election of a chairman, and thereupon it becomes the executive of

3To « a Scotia. 



A grand lodge was organized for this Province in June 1866, and 
the same was generally recognized by the United States grand 
lodges, but it could not properly be termed the G. Lodge of Nova 
Scotia, for the reason that none of the lodges in the Province hold- 
ing charters from the G. L. of Scotland acknowledged it. Not un- 
til June 24, 1869, was the Grand Lodge of Nova Scotia organized 
by the complete union of all the lodges then in the Province, fifty- 
one in number, and holding originally their charters from the sev- 
eral British grand lodges of the past century. The Hon. Alex. 
Keith, who had for many years, under Scottish appointment, filled 
the office of Provincial grand master, was elected the first grand 
master of the united grand lodge, and which in October, 1870, had 
on its register 57 lodges with 1811 subscribing members— several 
of the lodges making no return of membership. By the adoption, 
at the annual meeting for that year, of a new constitution this 
grand lodge will hold two regular communications each year : the 
annual in June and the semi-annual in December, both at Halifax. 
The assets of this grand lodge were, in October 1870, reported at 
nearly $4000 in cash and invested, and it was resolved to pay the 
reasonable expenses of one representative from each lodge, situate 
more than twenty miles from Halifax, to attend those communica- 
tions. Except in the matter of lodge representation, otherwise, 
this grand lodge in the manner of its organization resembles that 
of those bodies in the United States. 

The executive grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

Hon. Alex. Keith, of Halifax, Grand Master. 
Wm. Taylor, of Halifax, Deputy Grand Master 
Andrew Mackinlay, of Halifax, Grand Treasurer 
Benjamin Curren, of Halifax, Grand Secretary. 

From the Proceedings of the G. L. for 1870. courteously correc 
ted by the grand secretary, the following list is arranged.

JU^- Note. —In the General History, &c, published by Robert 
Macoy at New York in 1869 and since, it is stated that 4< the first 
" lodge in Quebec was organized by authority of a warrant from 
"St. John's Grand Lodge, of Boston. Mass." This statement is 
entirely incorrect, and unsupported by any evidence. Albion 
Lodge, No. 0, on the page following this, ranks as No. 17 on the 
register of the United Grand Lodge of England. It was organized 
in 1722 — eleven years before a Masonic lodge existed in Boston, or 
elsewhere in those colonies which subsequently became the United 
States. This is, outside of the city of London, the eldest lodge 
of those which have been chartered by the first grand lodge of 
Free and Accepted Masons ever organized. 



HueOec. 



The Grand Lodge in this Province was organized on the 20th of 
October, 1869, by the representatives of a majority of the lodges 
at that time in the Province convened for that purpose at Mont- 
real, and John H. Graham was elected the first grand master. Its 
first annual communication was held in that city on the 19th and 
20th days of October, 1870, at which time there were on its regis- 
ter 31 lodges, with 1279 contributing members. In its Proceedings 
of that date we find no reference to its finances. Being, so to say, 
but lately organized and, as yet, denied recognition by the Grand 
Lodge of Canada, with which, when so recognized, it should share 
to extent of a pro rata division the funds of the latter, the subject 
of finances has not, as it appears, been yet arranged or regarded 
with the degree of interest usual in such bodies. Like that of New 
Brunswick, this grand lodge is organized with the appointment of 
a Board of General Purposes, which, with the principal elective 
grand officers, constitute the executive between each ann. com., 
and at which such Board reports. Lodge representation in this 
grand lodge is unlimited as in those of the other provinces, being 
in all alike modeled on that of England. 

The principal grand officers elected in 1870 were — 

John Hamilton Graham, of Richmond, Grand Master. 
H. J. Pratten, of Quebec, Dep. Gr. Master. 
H. M. Alexander, of Montreal, Grand Treasurer. 
John H. Isaacson, of Montreal, Grand Secretary. 

From the well-printed Proceedings of this grand lodge for 1870 
we present the following list of the lodges in this Province then 
acknowledging allegiance to the G. L. of Quebec.

In the Island of Cuba, under the old regime of Spain, Masonic 
lodges are prohibited ; nevertheless such do exist, but nothing of 
a reliable character concerning them is known to us, or can be re- 
corded with propriety. 

We here close our presentation of as full and correct a register 
of the lodges and grand lodges of Freemasons in North America 
which recognize each other, or correspond to any extent, as it is 
possible, we believe, at this time to produce. To these might be 
added about three hundred lodges of colored men. more or less, 
but which are not to any extent, from political and social causes, 
recognized by United States lodges or grand lodges the names of 
which we have given ; nor are we enabled to record that, taking 
their orders from their Mother grand lodges of Great Britain, do 
the lodges or grand lodges in any part of North America recog- 
nize them. However much, in view of the truly catholic and uni- 
versal character that is claimed for Freemasonry, this fact may be 
deprecated by those of the Fraternity who in paternitaiem Dei cre- 
derem, et fraternitatem magnam Hominis, nevertheless those very 
men, while they may not cease to work and hope for the early real- 
ization of this their belief, must be content also to believe that ma- 
jorities will rule while voluntas populi lex suprema est. 




dboerttsements. 



In books of this character a few select advertisements, especially 
those of brethren dealers in the necessary outfit and equipments 
for any of the various Masonic bodies, may not be regarded out of 
place, but, as reference, be useful to the brethren in whose hands 
this little book may rest. Each of the advertisements here pre- 
sented may be relied upon as representing an entirely responsible 
party or firm. Were we so disposed we could extend this depart- 
ment largely, but we prefer to confine it mainly to the advertise- 
ments of Manufacturers and Dealers in Masonic and other Society 
Furnishing Goods, and have, therefore, refused to insert in it sev- 
eral advertisements offered of a miscellaneous character, and which 
might be regarded as objectionable and improper to appear in a 
book of this kind.
